Sounds like you just took all of the Thaumaturgy abilities too late... I got Blood Salvo for the Crackhouse, and I used it constantly throughout the game.

And Blood Boil deals enough splash damage to clear a whole crowd of humans, not counting the ones in the Golden Temple or the SWAT guys, so you probably just took that too late too.

Meh, I was busy putting points into the extremely and always useful hacking and lockpicking skills. Again I never notcied a bit of damage dealt by blood boil explosions. Granted it was at the Kwey Jin temple when I tried it, but I didn't even see damage numbers floating off them, or even any signs of being hit by something.

So, blood boil -- when you get it sometime in the last half of the game -- is useful on levels with mass NPCs, of which there are only like 4 or 5, and two of those are the Golden Temple and Ventrue tower with SWAT guys.


Speaking of slaughtering NPCs, did anyone kill Chunk when they first ran into him? Who mans the desk at Ventrue tower then?
